I usually make whole chickens in the oven and they turn out great, but I'm excited to try this recipe! The last time I use a slow cooker for a whole chicken, I put some liquid in there with it (some apple cider vinegar and chicken broth). I saw that the recipe didn't call for any kind of liquid to go in there - has anyone tried the slow cooker chicken without liquid? The blogger said the chicken naturally makes broth, but I worry that it'll still be dry.

I have never cooked an entire chicken in a slow cooker, but am fascinated by the idea. I love the convenience of putting it in the slow cooker with a few vegetables and forgetting about it for a few hours, and then having a delicious meal. My only concern is the chicken fat pooling in and around the vegetables under the chicken. Does anyone have any experience with this? Would removing the skin before cooking be an improvement?
